Girls (Infant → Teen)
Same height-vs-age logic, different proportions after ~7
Up to 24 months sizing is unisex. From toddler onward girls gain hip and waist faster than boys — hips flip by US 10 — plus the girls-only 6X half-step.
Girls' International Conversion (US / UK / EU / AU)
EU = child's height in cm (80, 86, 92…); UK/US/AU = child's age with T for Toddler. Girls are often sized by height + hip for skirts and dresses.

US Baby / Newborn (Girls) — Height + Weight
Up to ~12–24 months sizes are the same for boys and girls. The split starts around toddler/2T.
Infant sizing is unisex in practice up to ~24 months. The gendered charts start around 2T.
US baby / newborn (girls)
US Girls 2–7 Years (Toddler + Up)
Includes the girls-only 6X step — a half-size for the growth spurt before 7. Boys skip 6X and go 6 → 7.
Girls get a 6X (and sometimes 6½) half-step. A boy in 6X is usually a sizing error.
US girls 2–7 years
US Girls 7–14 Years (with S–XL and Body Measures)
Girls' hip and waist gain faster than chest relative to boys after ~age 7. Don't swap the charts.
A US 10 girl: 29 in chest, 24.5 in waist, 30.5 in hips; a US 10 boy: 28.5 in chest, 25 in waist, 29.5 in hips — hips flip.
US girls 7–14 years
Girls' Dresses, Skirts & the "Misses" Crossover
By US 14–16 girls' sizes overlap adult misses (S/M/L). Choose by chest + height and length. When a teen outgrows girls' bottoms, the letter (S/M/L) is usually a smoother transition than the number — see Women's bottoms.
Girls' Shoes
Same children's shoe rules as boys until the teen break — the split is styling, not sizing. See Shoes for adult/kids equivalence and width tables.
Fit & Common Mistakes
Fit & common mistakes
- Use height (cm) for EU sizing and age for UK/US — but a tall girl sizes up.
- Don't trust the boys' chart after ~age 8 — hips and shoulders diverge.
- "6X" is a girls-only half-step — a boy in 6X is usually an error.
- Girls' dresses are often sized to chest × height, so a petite tall girl may need a long/tall version not in the standard letter.
- Size up for EU fit — EU kids run slimmer than US.
